Verizon's LG G Pad 8.3 gets KitKat update

Though many may have forgotten that the device exists, Verizon has just started pushing out an Android 4.4.2 KitKat update to the LG G Pad 8.3. The update that started rolling to unlocked G Pad 8.3 customers back in April is now on the Verizon model, bumping things to KitKat, changing the visual styling of the interface (including Immersive Mode) and adding the Knock Code lockscreen option.

The update should be available OTA (Over The Air) to everyone shortly — be sure to let us know in the comments if you've already pulled the update down and installed.

Hmm, April for the regular version was already pretty slow/late as it is, tho acceptable (five months post KK release), tacking on an extra three months of testing or bureaucracy an LTE/data only device seems wholly unnecessary.

I loved "kitkat" on my Verizon LG G Pad. It worked beautifully. Sadly, I updated the new "lollipop" to my LG G Pad & I am disgusted!!!!! I feel like I have a broken tablet now. I called LG direct & they had me send my tablet to them promising me they would get "lollipop" off because they were aware that "lollipop" is not compatible with LG, & they would put "kitkat" bak on my tablet for me. Also understanding that Verizon cannot change a software update. Well, LG lied! After being w/out my tablet for 2 weks. LG sent my tablet back with stupid "lollipop" still on it! WTF!!!! I then called LG bak & asked them why they would waste time & money like that? I was now told that LG cannot downgrade meaning it is impossible for them to put "kitkat" back on my tablet. Again, I ask why did LG waste my time & money then? Foreigner had no answer for me other than, it can't be done. Best Buy offered to do itfor $200. I purchased the damn tablet for $100 with "kitkat" originally installed in it. My tablet does not work correctly with "lollipop!" Please, help if anyone knows how I can get back what I originally purchased. Thanks to stupid "lollipop" update I am stuck with a broken ass tablet. How is this legal??? What happened to buyers rights? I guess we have none with "google" in control.
